    The other day I had to work real hard to get my dip stick out. Once I got it out this was left at the top of the tube. Any idea what it could be?

    Get a mini screwdriver and try to dig it out. Probably the same crap that builds up on the oil cap

    Looks like the lower part of the "plug" section of the dipstick broke off below the o-ring that seals it.

    The metal dipstick came out, right? Not just the ring to pull it?
